This 100% solar community endured Hurricane Ian with no loss of power and minimal damage
The streets in this meticulously planned neighborhood were designed to flood so houses don’t. Native landscaping along roads helps control storm water. Power and internet lines are buried to avoid wind damage. This is all in addition to being built to Florida’s robust building codes.
Jaywalking laws have always been automobile-supremacist and a pretext for harassment of those who would freely navigate public space while not encased in a car.
Free to get ignored or unnoticed by drivers in big heavy moving boxes who then have a higher likelihood of killing them. As long as the infrastructure is car centric, things like cross walks save lives.
